Timothy J Fontaine e9170cbc3d v8: shift heap space for aslr on 64bit Previously we were only shifting the address space for ASLR on 32bit processes, apply the same shift for 64bit so processes don't get artificially limited native heap.		2014-06-06 15:07:30 -07:00

README.md

Evented I/O for V8 javascript.

To build:

Prerequisites (Unix only):

* GCC 4.2 or newer
* Python 2.6 or 2.7
* GNU Make 3.81 or newer
* libexecinfo (FreeBSD and OpenBSD only)

Unix/Macintosh:

./configure
make
make install

If your python binary is in a non-standard location or has a non-standard name, run the following instead:

export PYTHON=/path/to/python
$PYTHON ./configure
make
make install

Windows:

vcbuild.bat

You can download pre-built binaries for various operating systems from http://nodejs.org/download/. The Windows and OS X installers will prompt you for the location to install to. The tarballs are self-contained; you can extract them to a local directory with:

tar xzf /path/to/node-<version>-<platform>-<arch>.tar.gz

Or system-wide with:

cd /usr/local && tar --strip-components 1 -xzf \
                     /path/to/node-<version>-<platform>-<arch>.tar.gz

To run the tests:
